Dozens of black women leaders and allies have admonished the Senate and House minority leaders for their "recent failure to protect" Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., "from unwarranted attacks" by President Donald Trump, his administration, and other Republicans.
Waters said last month that opponents of Trump should confront members of his administration whenever they meet them and "tell them they're not welcome anymore, anywhere," according to The Daily Beast, a comment that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer both declined to agree with. Schumer described her approach in a floor speech as "not American,” according to CNN.
"We write to share our profound indignation and deep disappointment over your recent failure to protect Congresswoman Waters from unwarranted attacks from the Trump Administration and others in the GOP," the women wrote to Schumer and Pelosi in a letter on Tuesday, according to Politico. "That failure was further compounded by your decision to unfairly deride her as being 'uncivil' and 'un-American.'"

What is the difference when women politians are coitizing the woman Pres Trump has on his list for Supreme Court nominee. Shows the Liberal Democrat hypocrisy.
Mad Max has always run her mouth, but recently has picked up the pace.
She's an attack dog, not a problem solver. Always has been. So why are they upset that her outrageous and over the top vitriol is getting pushback?
The black gauntlet has been drawn - such a mess for the Dems, who've allowed this mess to happen.
Idiots, but pass me the popcorn! This will be great entertainment!!!
Lord, when are these people gonna get their heads out of their a$$.
Unwarranted attacks??
No, but he sure can poke back.
“Dozens”?? What percentage is that of the millions of black women. Just wasting journalistic effort and my time....
